I'm thinking it's an older tiger botia - see photo (it's the fish at the top): http://www.vergari.com/Acquariofilia/images/Janiczak_botia_helodes_3.jpg.
Addition: It's hard to tell if there's just one dorsal fin and a rock, or two dorsal fins (or one and an adipose fin) If there are two, the giraffe nosed cat is probably right.

It is without a doubt a Synodontis species. Synodontis ocellifer is my best guess Synos can be quite hard to tell apart even in person much less a photo, but that really looks like S. ocellifer.

I agree with magicman. That is without a doubt a synodontis of some sort. Hard to tell exactly what species though.

its definitely not a hillstream loach, tiger botia or Synodontis. Looks to me like a giraffe cat (or something related)

It's some sort of freshwater catfish. Most of the above are good guesses, but the photo isn't good enough to say.
